Winter Maple Cream Ale almost carbonated.

Double Hash Ale went into the keg last night.

Brew day today, first attempt at a sour. Trying out @jamie_savoie 's Flanders Red 2.0 recipe.

Chickens were patiently waiting for the spent grains. I also tried out the same trick Roger did at the Mashoccur to get the last bit of propane out of the tank. The flame quit just as I hit my strike temp  ;D

Brewed a Dubbel that I'm planning to serve for my wedding. Did a second running on the mash to try and clear out some of the old bugs I had in my kegerator but it only came out to 1.024. I decided to throw them in anyway just to keep them alive and see what they taste like. Its a combo of some raspberries from my garden that I threw in some wort last year, WLP655, dreggs from a bottle of Bam Biere and Four Winds Wild IPA.

Planning on brewing a Rye IPA and Tripel after and reuse the yeast cake from the Dubbel.

Made about 1.5L of maple syrup... To be used in secondary fermenter and to bottle conditioning a maple sap brew...
Give a man a beer and he'll waste an hour, teach him how to brew beer and he'll waste a lifetime.

Brewing beer for your own wedding! What an awesome idea, wish I had been homebrewing for mine.  :cheers:

Unfortunately it'll probably just be two bottles on each tables unless I can find a way to get several kegs to BC :(

I'm making a session IPA. With Chinook for bittering, Citra and Simcoe to finish. Should be around 4.3% and very drinkable.

Brewing my first all sap batch today. Maple sap Saison...
The maple just stopped running and now the birch is just pissing out of the trees. I expect to brew the Birch sap Saison within a week or so. They'll both be exactly the same recipe just the water source(sap) will change.  :cheers:
